Minnetonka Men's Leather Laced Softsole Mocassins, 5 UK

My physician has been harassing me for some time to wear shoes around the house. I much prefer barefoot. Then I went on vacation and went into a tourist-trap gift shop that sells Minnetonka moccasins. I thought that might be worth a shot. But the store did not have the softsole version, so I cam home and checked Amazon. Here they were!I checked the "somewhat small" box for fit. Maybe I could have used another half size up as these rubbed the top of my fourth toe (both feet). I fixed the problem quickly by putting on 3 pairs of heavy socks and heating the moccasins with a blow dryer several times. That loosened them up just enough that they are very comfortable.The softsole is great for around the house and almost like going barefoot. I would prefer barefoot, but my physician is right about this--it is good to have foot protection around the house. These do the job in comfort.When I have to buy another pair, I will do something immediately to the laces (maybe put some glue on the knot so it will never come undone?). The laces kept coming untied and eventually they got snapped off when they were untied, and I was not aware, and stepped on the laces. As of now, nether shoe is tied but that's OK, they still fit and wear fine. They would look better with bows ties in the laces, but I'm not wearing them for fashion.All in all, quite happy with these and will buy another pair if these ever wear out.

Le vendeur m'a envoyé la mauvaise taille. De plus, il est important de noter que ce produit comporte effectivement un rembourrage à l'intérieur, qui pourrait potentiellement agir comme un isolant et perturber la mise à la terre. Je vous recommande de considérer un produit en cuir pur, sans aucun autre matériau synthétique à l'intérieur du mocassin, pour une expérience de mise à la terre plus efficace, comme ceux fabriqués par earthingmoccasins en France.

Die Mokkassins benutze ich als Hausschuhe. Sehr gut verarbeitet und passen wie angegossen. Gerne wieder.

I've been wearing them since Christmas and they feel great! My feet are usually either too hot or too cold, but these are just right for when the floors are little cold. Good traction without "grabbing" the floor/stairs. Comfortable with socks, too.

The moccasins look good, fit well and are relatively cheap. That said, I regret buying them, as they are manufactured using leather, thinner than a chamois and are nowhere as good, or robust, as my previous moccasins that I bought in Utah. Maybe I am too demanding, as Minnetonka clearly sell lots of these moccasins, however my advice, is buy elk hide moccasins, with double elk hide on the sole. They will cost up to three times as much (in the UK), but will last ten times longer.
